LightDM fails after update

FIXED: Reinstalled xorg-server, nvidia, nvidia-utils, lightdm.

I recently did a "pacman -Syu" and now LightDM will not launch correctly, this is the error given when lightdm is run:

** (lightdm:10006): CRITICAL **: session_get_login1_session_id: assertion 'session != NULL' failed

Also when lightdm-gtk-greeter is run the error is:

lightdm-gtk-greeter: error while loading shared libraries: libnvidia-glcore.so.355.11: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I believe this is because nvidia-utils is in version 358.16 (https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extr … dia-utils/) but I am not sure how to fix either of these issues.
